Bisinsrck Is Said To BE Making a Mevc ON
Hollands Border.


The following dispatch from Antwerp
has been published in the Brussels Ga.
zette: 81 am informed that the Berlin
government is about to construct, just
beyond the railway station of Sihpelpeld,
On the Dutch frontier, on German terri
tory, 26 sidings, each long enough to
convey train with 1900 men to the
grand central line from Aix-la. Chappelle
to Antwerp. Gradients and railways
will be CONSTRUCTED at this purely military
station for the landing of cavalry, and a
reservoir will be built for the purpose OF
feeding locomotives. The whole works
will cost /, 200, 900 marks. The German
etat-major, which has 300,0 men con.
centrated in fortresses between Cologne,
Dusseldorf, AK, etc., estimates that,
with such an installation, within an hour
II would be in position to throw so, 900
troops upon Maestrecht, to occupy the
bridge there and to prevent the Dutch
from blowing it up. This bridge Is un-
dermined for military purposes. The
German etat-major is also contemplating
measures TO put the government in po-
sition TO throw an army Of so 900 men
under the walls Of Antwerp at "a hours
notice" The European correspondents
Of the New York papers report, that
Bismarck has designs on Holland, and
has agreed with France to restore Alcase.
Lorraine II she will agree not tointerferc.
This will account for German military
movements.

A SECOND DELUGE.



Destruction Of Property Occurs.
The rapid rising Of the Savannah river
at Mount Carmel threw Augusta, Ca,
people into fever of excitement, and
everyone commenced Immediately maxi
ing preparations to keep the water from
their business houses and homes. The
force Of water in the third level canal
blew out one Of the gates on sMarbary
street, at Clarke's Globe mills, and the
water flowed through very rapidly, and
flooded many houses down through Dub
lin, and extending out by the Central
railroad TO The south commons, which
were completely flooded, and there join
ing the water from the bend In the river
below the city, thus encircling Augusta.
The water extends on every street be-
tween Greene and the river down as far
as Cumming, on Greene as far down as
Campbell, on Telfair to Mcintosh and on
Walker all that entire portion of southern
Augusta down to the east boundary, ex-
cepting the extreme eastern portion,
which is much higher than the city prop
er. The water II, Of course, over the
first floors Of at least one hundred houses.
Many persons sought the second Story,
but those who reside in one story houses
were compelled to desert them and seek
shelter with friends who were fortunate
enough to own or rent two-story house.
Many people are greatly excited over the
rapid rise, which Is without parallel.

DESTRUCTIVE FREsHErs
Cause Great Losses ON the Rice Plantations
Along the Savannah River.

A few days ago, the rice PLANTERS
along the Savannah river were hopeful
of the best crops for years, and in one
day their lands are Uverrun with water
and the prospect is utter ruin Of the crops.
From the city of Savannah, Ga, up the
river towards Augusta there is the
Charleston bridge Of the G. q s. Road.
Three miles this side of the bridge is the
Little Vernezebre creek. Before the
Savannah river reaches this creek 1t di-
yides and runs into two narrow streams
around Argyle Island, and, indeed, Sc
ries of islands. The stream next the
Carolina shore Is known rs the Back
river, and fronting on this stream, both
from the Carolina shore and the islands
mentioned, are the great fields. In times
Of freshet the river rises over the low,
swampy lands that lie on the Carolina
banks Of the Back rivef and are above
Vernezebre creek. Just this side Of the
creek begin the rice plantations. Vern-
ezebre freshet bank was built 35 years
ago. It runs back inland from the Back
river and at right angles to the river, and
IL dD0uL q IullCo AZ ASuHbhs AuC tCih-
ezebre freshet bank is not financial
institution, but it is a corporation with q
president and other corporate officers,
who keep il up, and who assess the plan
tiers who are siibjacent TO 1t. This bank
has nevef before been 0yerhowed. 1t
was supposed to be 4 feet above the high
est ireshet. The waters are way above
it, and have rushed all over the rice fields
of the Carolina coasts. This means the
ruin Of 1000 acres Of cultivated rice
land, which, at calculation Of 40 bush.
els to the acre, and dollar and quarter
to the bushel, means a loss Of about $780, =
900, besides the immense damage to the
banks. The rice is in o condition when
water will ruin it. Three-fourths Of it
has Just shot up and fowered. The rest
has headed and begun to Gil. The water
will prevent the milk from rising from
the belly, and the rice will be blighted.
